September 25, 2011

Dear Mr. John Johnson:

This formal letteris being issued for poor performance while in your probationary
period. As a reminder your probationary period
started on the date of
your hire, August 21, 2011, and continues through November 21,

relationship that is considered “At-Will” which means that either the
employee or the employer may end that relationship at any time for any
reason or no reason at all.

John,
you were hired to fill the position of forklift operator for the
loading dock. The credentials you presented at the time of hire showed
that you had the training and expertise to operate the size and type of
forklift that you were assigned to. In addition, you received additional
training specific to the forklift that you were being assigned to
operate at your orientation. Since that training you have caused two
minor incidents that resulted in damage to incoming product. In
addition, you have failed to safely secure your forklift when it is not
in operation three times.

My signature indicates that the above information has been discussed with me.

Letter of Concern for Poor Performance

April 5, 2010

Dear Mr. Don Wilson:

You are being issued a letter of concern for not achieving the minimum
level of performance required as an Insurance Policy Salesperson for
this Company.

During the month of March 2010, you failed to make
the minimum number of telephone calls from the list of leads provided by
the Company. This list originates from individuals that have expressed
interest in our policies. In addition, you also failed to follow up with
all the appointments you made during the month of February 2010.

Don, our reputation is built on our Sales Team fulfilling the promises
they make to our customers. By not following through on making telephone
calls to individuals that have expressed an interest in our insurance
policies can lead to those individuals losing trust. In addition, making
an appointment with someone that you do not keep makes it almost
impossible to salvage a professional relationship with those
individuals.

Please understand that this will be the only written notice you
will receive. If you fail to meet your goals in the future you will be
considered for immediate termination from this Company without prior
notice.

Don, if there is some underlying reason you are not able to meet
these goals it is imperative that you inform me immediately so that I
may provide you whatever assistance that you may require within my
ability.

It is equally important that you understand that the Company
maintains an “At-Will” employment relationship with our employees as our
employee handbook clearly outlines. This type of employment
relationship means that the employee or the employer may end the
relationship with or without a reason.

Gerald Ford
Supervisor
